Portraits i'm the Newspapers.

Mrs. Frances HodGson Burnett has de

portraits of authors and prominent per-

correspondent who recently solicited a
copy of n portrait of herself for publica-
ton in a magazine the authoress wrote:
There is nothing more painful to con-
template than a picture of ones self in a

TERRIBLE

YOUNGSTOWN, o., Jan. 6.-At 3 o'clock this
morning, Jack Temple, a Waterman in the
scarcely complete Andrews !block on south
Market street, opened a window to secure ven
tilation when instantly an explosion occurred
and he ran into the street with his clothes
afame and rolled in the snow. Flames burst
from the building, which burned with extra
ordinary rapidity, and was totally consumed.
The block was of brick and stone and had
Just been completed at a cost of $50, 900. Sew
eral adjoining buildings were badly damaged
and the total loss will reach considerably
over 500, OOO, with probably $4,000 insurance.
Waterman Temple was badly burned and
was removed to the city hospital. Another
Waterman, Thomas Brannigan, aged ~, is
missing, and is supposed to be in the ruins,
while Assistant Chief Davis of the fire de-
partment was painfully burned. Two lines of
natural gas mains ran past the Andrews build
ing. and it is supposed the fluid leaked and
was carried into the building through a drain
trench and was ignited when Temple opened
the window and created a draft.

Dissatisfaction Expressed Win Presidential
appointments In he Territories
Washington special: Delegate Clifford
has been reading the riot act to President
Cleveland. He vent to the white house to
urge the name of a Dakota man for a iu-
dicial office in that territory and the presi-
dent displayed some impatience at Gill;
ford's opportunities, at which the latter
said: You must remember, Mr.. Presi-
dent, that we Ave good men, men pure in
morals and highly qualified as to legal
ability, to fill these offices and all offices OF
this territory and a majority OF our peo-
pie want them in these Offices"
"But l cannot appoint your citizens to
these positions" said the president. 'be-
cause every man in your territory who
amounts to anything is arrayed on one
side or the other of your territorial fight
or is in some corrupt transaction. They
are mixed up in your q%uarrels and they
are unfit to hold office. 1t seems that it
takes but a few months for the people going
into Dakota to get into the meshes OF your
ringsters and to be placed beyond the pale
OF unbiased citizens"
This fired up Clifford, and he replied:
wen, you propose TO OISfeSarO Une voice
of the people there in choosing their Off
GERS, do you? Now, there was Day. who
wanted to be governor. Day was endorsed
not only by his party at the polls in his
candidacy against Inc, but by the people.
They said they wanted him in the office,
and yet you did not listen to them. Ii WI
had Il statehood we hould select by pop
nlar ballot men for offices whom you will
not consider now and you, even you, must
acknowledge that for the purpose we have
statehood now all we lack is the form of
admission"
Ex-Representative Barney Caulfeld, OF
Deadwood, 10Y here, is disappointed and
disguised at the appointment made of Il
successor to Justice Church. He thinks it
is an insult to the intelligence and integrity
OF the territory, and says the presidents
objection to appointing Dakotians to this
position will not stand; that the very men
the president istaking from New York to
fill the Offices, according to his own state
ment, will become %entangled in questions
before the people of Dakota within a few
months after they enter the territory, and
that therefore there can be no
possible advantage in going elsewhere for
men to fill the Offices, if only to get those
who are outside OF ~agitating the questions
before the people. Caulfield thinks the
truth is that the president goes to New
York for appointees because he wants to
personal friends and despairs OF Sc
curing anything in the office line for legiti-
mate residents OF the territory.

RECEPTION AT O4KVIEW.

Washington special: Mrs. Folsom held
her first reception to-day at Oakview, as
sisted by Mrs. Lamont and Miss Hastings.
A number of the principal people in diplo-
matte, official and social circles waited
upon the handsome mother OF the presi-
dents wife, although the effort meant a
dreary three-mile drive over a miserable
road in the face OF a severe snow storm.
About moo Mrs. Cleveland arrived. She
looked her best and had added the beauty
of very rosy cheeks. wrought by the brac-
ing wind. A long sealskin dolman almost
covered a lark dress trimmed with passa-
mentrie. The reception lasted from IL to
l o'clock.
